Chien Yu Chin

Character Introduction

Chien Yu Chin (October 24, 1982) is a Chinese female badminton player from Chinese Taipei who won a bronze medal at the 2010 World Badminton Championships.

Chien Yu Chin began her career as a women’s singles player, and was once considered to be the future successor of the women’s singles team in the Taiwanese badminton world. At the 2000 World Junior Badminton Championships, Chien Yu Chin not only won a bronze medal in the women’s singles, but also made it to the last eight in the doubles with her temporary partner, Chien Wen Hsin. After the World Junior Championships, Chien Yu Chin’s singles performance was not good in the international arena, but her doubles competition reached the quarterfinals of the Japan Badminton Open for two consecutive years. The coach at the time thought that Chien Yu Chin lacked the delicate net skills of a singles player, although she had heavy kills and speed, and that it was easier for her to make a name for herself in doubles because of her combination of strength, speed, and stature. In the end, Chien Yu Chin was persuaded to switch to doubles.

In August 2004, Chien Yu Chin participated in the Summer Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia. They started off with a straight-sets victory over the Canadian pair Helen Nicole/Charmaine Reid in the first round (15-0, 15-10), but lost 1-2 (13-15, 15-8, 5-15) to the tournament’s 6th seeded team, Hwang You-Mi/Lee Hyo-Jeong of South Korea, in the round of 16.

After the London Olympics, Ching/ Chien Yu Chin officially split up after winning the Chinese Taipei Open Badminton Championships in the same year due to personality and values incompatibility, and Ching’s decision to take up a coaching and lecturing position at National Chung Cheng University, while Chien Yu Chin switched to partnering with Zhou Jiaqi in women’s doubles to compete in international tournaments.

Before the reorganization of Cheng/Jane, they were already ranked No. 3 in the world, and after they were officially reunited, they reached the quarterfinals of the Malaysian Badminton Super Series, and then won the South Korean Badminton Super Series; the successive successes led to them being ranked No. 1 in the world at the end of January 2009, which was a new record for the badminton world of Taiwan, China.

In August 2013, Chien Yu Chin participated in the World Badminton Championships in Guangzhou, China, and played with Wu Cheuk-yung in the women’s doubles event. They lost 0-2 (19-21, 19-21) to Rie Eto/Eu Wakita of Japan in the first round.
